Seward, Nebraska, United States

Same old story, Great project!, no time to touch it.
I've wanted this particular truck for 8-10 years but the owner wouldn't sell.  Almost 3 years ago he finally sold it to me.  Of course by that time in my life I had a frame up restoration going on, two teenagers that keep me busy with their cars and sports as well as a set of 1 year old twins.  Zero time for myself.  So it sat in my father in law's shed.  3 years later and I haven't touched it.  Bought many parts but never had time to even think about getting the truck out.  Time to let someone else get this truck going.

All original with all the Custom Cab options still there, chrome grill, and chrome accents. 100% original as far as I know.  Still has the open air relays and fiber coated wires under the hood (All electrical will need replaced though). Has not been cut into yet or disassembled so it could be a restoration or full custom. The patina would make for a nice rat rod too. Will need at least 1 cab corner as it has small pin holes in it, a partial cab floor, and the bed crossmembers are rotted.  It was a farm truck so it has dents, scratches and rust. Tail gate has disappeared since I put it in storage. Sat outside for many years before I bought it so there might be rust I'm not aware of.  Will need a full nut and bolt restoration or at least a teardown and rebuild for a rat rod.  

Original 216 is in it and locked up Original Trans is locked, driveshaft removed, truck Rolls good, steering is not locked
Frame is solid. I was planning on cutting 9.75" out of the frame and making a short box but that's up to you, Still factory 3/4 ton length
Has a Nebraska Bonded Title, fully transferable, bond expires in November, after that it's a normal title.

Also included are all my build parts: 
New: 
Mustang II Air bag Front end kit w/ 11" brakes. 
Includes crossmember, boxing plates, spring towers, tubular control arms with ball joints and spacers, t bolts, 2"drop spindles and Speedway 11" brake kit #91031943
Front end kit is missing the Airbags, shocks, tie rods and Rack and Pinion. 
Universal Weld-in Rear 4 link kit. 
Speedway 20 Circuit wiring harness 
Cable throttle pedal.
Universal Small Block Chevy Engine mount kit
Universal Transmissions crossmember

Used: 
I bought a "running when pulled" 235 full oiler with 4sp trans included but Condition is unknown. 
A 3100 (1/2 ton) Spindles and beam axle (thought I was going Beam axle and disc brakes at one time but changed my mind)
Visor (Not a Fulton but nice) 
S-10 Brake pedal & bracket incl booster and master cyl. 
S-10 Steering Column incl intermediate shaft, key, steering wheel 
S-10 Rear end, open 3.42 gears 
Box of additional gauges but they were modified, I was planning on using the guts just incase any of the gauges in the truck didn't work.

And anything else I can find for this truck.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
